This report is being submitted as follow up no.1 to update and to provide the completed investigation results.One angio-seal 8fr sts plus carrier tube was returned for product evaluation.No other accessory components were returned.Visual inspection revealed that the anchor was fully exposed at the distal tip and there was no bypass tube present.The collagen at the distal tip appeared swollen.There was no damage or deformation noted on the carrier tube assembly.No other visual anomalies were noted.Since the bypass tube was not returned, functional testing was not possible.Based on the provided information and investigation results, there is no definitive evidence that this event was related to a device defect or malfunction.The exact cause of the reported event cannot be definitively determined based on the available information.
